I'm not giving him a pass but some of this is not 100% on him Lilja plays that better it never even gets to Bryz.

He made the 1st save and Lilja just stood and did nothing, Bryz can't do it all.

Welp, Lilja is only playing because of what else injuries. So same poop, different year.

this series could very easily be 3 zip. Flyers were fortunate in game 1.

Not putting all the blame on Bryzgalov, but 6 of 8 playoff games thus far have been under a .900 save %. Simply not good enough any way you slice it. Boucher was ran out of town last year and his playoff save % was .904. Bryzgalovs is significantly lower than that.
- PLindbergh31


Not to sound like an idiot, but let's put the stats aside for a second. Both in game 2 and in game 3, Bryz was the best player on the ice. If we want to blame him for having a subpar performance in the Pens series; go right ahead. But learn to pick your battles. There is no reason why Bryz should be getting hated on right now. Bad rebound control on the OT, sure. But overall, best player in games 2 and 3.

Brayden Schenn needs to destroy someone in Game 4.

Flyers are falling right into the Devils' hands by playing boring ass (frank)ing hockey.

Wake up, you (frank)s, you knocked off the best team in the East in six games. Don't let this (frank)ing golden opportunity slip by cause I can tell you next year those (frank)ers from the other side of the state are going to pounce every single chance they get.

WAKE UP

May I ask what you are watching? Did he make a bad change? Was he supposed to let the player by the defense and clear the puck from the crease after the save?

You seem to act as if nobody else can ever be at fault

10 goals in 3 games not very good (minus empty net). I'm not blaming Bryz but as a team they have to be better.
- stveshdy


All around it has to be better. Bryz can't do it all but has to be better and those in front of him have to figure it out to not try and hope Bryz has to steal every game or even 1.

apart from the line change, Gus broke Zubrus' stick on a blatant slash that was not called. The refs tried their best to give us the game today and we said no thanks.
- PT21


those 2 pp's were just so horrendous. GOLDEN GOLDEN GOLDEN opportunity when the dman lost his stick and the overplay it and lose the (frank)ing puck. they didn't simplify and just throw everything at the net. in a game where they played well for 20-25 minutes, they had every chance to win the game in OT and pissed it down the drain.

They gave the game away in OT with those PP's and that joke goal.

Amateur hour.

He was without question the best player on the ice in game 2, no one else sans Wellwood showed up, but Bryzgalov was very good. He was ok tonight, I wouldn't call him the best player on the ice. He gave up 4 goals.

No but he made the save, Lilja stood and didn't even make a play on the puck or the man. Had he done that they are heading to double OT not wondering how to even the series.

We all know Bryz has to be better. But it's not all him. He played out of his mind in game 2 what's he get for it them not playing in front of him. He didn't play bad tonight what's he get for it sloppy play in front on him.
